The Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Office said Monday that a mandatory evacuation order is in effect for foothill neighborhoods in and around Montecito, Summerland and Carpinteria that are at high risk for loss of life and property. Officials want everyone out by 8 p.m.

A recommended evacuation warning is in effect for a wider area. Residents in that zone aren't under orders to leave, but are at risk for flooding or being cut off from services.
